Donald Trump was the center of attention at Chelsea's celebrations. |
Chelsea ended the season on a high note, beating PSG 3-0 in the final at MetLife Stadium, with Enzo Maresca's men claiming the first Club World Cup under the new format.
However, the post-match buzz revolved around a "half-laughing, half-crying" moment at the medal ceremony. In a video that went viral online, Tyrique George was seen passing by Mr. Trump without shaking his hand. At that time, the US President and FIFA President Gianni Infantino were awarding medals to the "The Blues" players.
Multiple camera angles showed Trump turning around to get another medal for the next player, while George walked past. The US President still managed to say "congratulations" but George just kept walking.
The moment was closely watched by Chelsea and received lively comments. "It was funny to see Mr. Trump's face when George 'ignored' him", "Whether it was intentional or not, George still didn't shake Mr. Trump's hand", "I think George took advantage of the moment when Mr. Trump turned away to get past"... were common reactions from fans.
After the medal presentation, while President Infantino withdrew so that Chelsea could prepare to lift the trophy, Mr. Trump stood right in the middle of the "The Blues" players. This image also caused fierce controversy.
